Dr. Malat explains things in a clear and memorable manner that makes everything easy to understand. He never rushes me and takes the time to make sure everything is sanitized and ready for the next patient. Friendly and easy-going manner too!

More about Dr. Glenn Malat, OD

NOTE: We do not participate with any vision insurance. If we are in network with your Medical Insurance company, we will submit your claim electronically. Dr. Malat graduated in 1994 from the State University of New York, College of Optometry. Dr. Malat spent 12 years at East Side Eye Associates in Manhattan, building a loyal patient base and driving what is now the second largest contact lens practice in New York City.He moved his focus to NJ, where he opened three successful practices, each allowing him the freedom to develop deep relationships with his patients and the communities he served. Today, Dr. Malat’s vision is focused on a single, brand new, state of the art eye care practice, supported by his staff of 26 years. (formerly Gurian Hearing and Vision) Caldwell Eyecare offers an in-house lab for digital free form eyeglass prescriptions, with quick service. He is certified in the diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases, including kerataconus and low vision and the co-management of LASIK. He is also a referral source for difficult and hard to fit contact lens patients. Today, his expanded evening and weekend hours maximizes service and convenience for his patients. Dr. Malat is a resident and active member of the West Caldwell community. He has been happily married for 30 years to his elementary school sweetheart, and is father to two daughters, that you will often and proudly hear him describe as “super, amazing, strong and independent young women”. His passion is his patients, especially first time contact lens fittings with his young patients. Over the years, he has been fortunate in seeing many of them grow into adults and then, in turn, bring their own children to see him–and to Dr. Malat, there is no greater satisfaction than to keep growing the Caldwell Eyecare family. When he’s not in the office, he loves spending time with his family, friends and playing baseball.

Dr Malat gave the most complete exam I ever had. He explained everything and answered all my questions. I would definitely return
Dr. Malat has a personality and bedside manner that is not seen much these days. He’s funny, personable and extremely informative which for me is very important (I can be squeamish and nervous regarding my eyes) and the optometrist/receptionist Veronica is amazing as well! I recently moved and now live 25 minutes away and wouldn’t think twice about making the trip to continue seeing Dr. Malat!

This was my first time visiting the office of Dr. Malat and right away I was made very comfortable. I was greeted with joy and jokes as soon as I walked into the office. Once i got into the appointment, Dr. Malat was absolutely incredible. He did a variety of tests on my eyes, explained the results and why he was doing each test thoroughly - making sure I understood everything he was saying as he went. Dr. Malat did a wonderful job and I would recommend him to anyone who asks about an eye doctor!
